Did ancient people’s really have no awareness that children born of incest were more sickly than other children? The differences in the rates of abnormalities is significant enough to be apparent in clan-sized groups.
Of course they did. Historically speaking incest is largely confined to royalty, justified gods. Levi-Strauss was a structuralist anthropologist mainly concerned with mythology, which is where the incest-bit comes in. It’s symbolism, not investigative journalism.
@@JustinMurphy at about the 1:08min mark . To suppose they are “ primitive “ one has to be superior ect , in here is Christian ideology . Whilst this was the accepted nomenclature towards tribal communities ( indeed later on you refer to First Nations as such) was to say “ primitive “. GB admires their expenditure says waste more , not demean and deride said cultures more..the boys over on acid horizons don’t do this
The boys on acid horizon fall over themselves to apologize if any perceivable accidental slip of a term that any author they mention might have ever said in their respective lives. For so many leftists supposedly influenced by Nietzsche, they sure do grovel exceptionally well to satiate the current permissible social thought we find ourselves solely allowed to use, God forbid they quote an author with an antiquated approach to language, or third worldism

I like these way more than interviews
Nietzsche= bataille= Deleuze = Nick Land .
200 years of philosophy
Which is why you people are сancer upon this earth. The West is the land of the dead indeed.
Your seething resentment leaves not much to be desired….
Whoa the jibe about primitive cultures is a bit ignorant. Bataille admired tribal cultures because they weren’t over run with Christian monotheism
Also their reckless expenditure showed one could still have a stable culture were sacred and profane were ok
Did I really "jibe"? What did I say that was a jibe?
